My name is Cyril Sancereau, I’m a French photographer from Paris based in Malta.

I specialise in architecture, landscape and abstract landscapes.

How did you get started?

I started photography when I was around 10 during vacations. I was fascinated when I discovered the magic of the darkroom. Later I studied architecture and art.

Whose artist’s work are you most inspired by?

I really like American landscape photographers like Lewis Baltz or Robert Adams. I was also really inspired by the work of Wolfgang Tillmans.

In a French Theatre in Paris.

What are you working on at the moment?

At the moment, I’m working on different series.

I prefer to work early in the morning.

Sundays can be very productive for some and very unproductive for others. How do you spend yours?

Very unproductive: Sundays are for resting.

Wine and cheese. Yes or no?

Both of course, I’m French

If you were given a million euros, what would you indulge yourself with?

Monique started indulge in 2011 and has since created Indulge Me GIFT and Indulge Me FOOD and volume 1 of The Artists Directory - Malta.
A marketing professional by trade, Monique's passion is to promote local talent and Malta in general.
Free time is her biggest indulgence, when she can tinker in her craft room or the kitchen, or be selfish with a book, the sofa and good glass of wine (of course, wearing something beautiful and with freshly coiffed hair!)
